Day 6

I have a doctor appointment with Dr Lubbe at Spokane Cardiology this morning. Nervous, anxious and don't know what to expect.

At noon Fearless Leader has called for a company wide meeting. I am hoping the news won't be too bad. We are expecting the news to be no raises this year and maybe a cut in some of the benefits.

Michael has the day off because he has several doctor appointments as well today.

Bad news from the doctor. First I absolutely love Dr. Lubbe. He's smart, caring and oh so smart. He put me on 3 more medicines, plus coumadin. I will take that for a month and thenthey will stop my heart and shock it back into a natural rhythym. And then 3 more month of coumadin.

What did I do that was so bad that I deserve this? This thought has run through my head all day.

The company meeting was what we all thought. A freeze on raises and no more new HRA. I can live with that. It is still a great job and I love the company.
